Since 2014, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive players have had one complaint: cheaters. Instead of upgrading the FPS game‘s anti-cheat software, VAC or delivering a one-time solution, Valve has deployed a series of annual ban waves. The paywall update in 2021 did little to help solve the problem; CSGO hackers, it turned out, were pretty loaded – a lot of them could simply buy their way back in. Now, with the Counter-Strike 2 release date approaching, there is hope of a new and more robust anti-cheat solution. The CS2 trailers however seem to have doused those hopes in cold water.
